Torchmate CNC plasma cutting tables are known in the industry for their profitability, but what hasn't been discovered is how accurate the tables are. Our industry normally quotes motor resolution to within a few thousandths of an inch, but what they haven't tested is how accurate the machine is in executing that resolution to a coordinate on the table.
We're using laser interferometry and ballbar testing to determine how close our tables can get to a programmed coordinate. The technology can read measurements to within a quarter of a laser wavelength, which helps us get a highly accurate reading for where the torch is on the table. The accuracy comes down to the engineering of the machine, and how accurate our mechanics are.
There is often a difference in where the table is programmed to go, and where it actually goes. This difference is often not noticeable to the human eye, but we want to take out the human error and calibrate our tables to an industry leading specification.
